KSPB by the numbers
What the long-run records say about flying here, computed for this airport alone.
KSPB reported VFR in 77% of daylight observations over 20 years, about 228 flyable days a year. July is the most reliable month and December the least, with IFR or worse 23% of the time. When conditions drop it is usually a mix of low ceilings (under 1,000 ft 6% of hours) and low visibility (under 3 miles 5%).
Over 20 years of hourly winds, runway 33 had the best headwind 59% of the time, runway 15 41%, and winds were calm 42% of hours. Winds most often blow from the north. Crosswind on the best available runway topped 15 kt in under 1% of hours.
Fog was reported on about 57 days a year, and fog or mist on 172. January and December are the foggiest months, with fog in 28% of hours, against 1% in July.
Snow fell on about 9 days a year and freezing rain or drizzle on 2. From December to February KSPB was IFR or worse 20% of the time, against 1% from June to August.
Winds were calm 35% of the time and averaged 3.5 kt overall. July is the windiest month (mean 5 kt) and January the calmest.

Runway wind check
Estimated head/tailwind and crosswind for each runway end from the current reported wind.
Current wind is calm: calm wind is not a factor for runway selection, and with no wind there is no head/tail or crosswind component to compute. Live numbers return automatically once a report includes a wind direction.
| Runway | Length | Surface | Head / Tail | Crosswind |

“Current use” is what the facilitystates; wind components are arithmetic on the current METAR against TRUE headings; status reflects NOTAMs received through SWIM, the tower's TFDM record and the D-ATIS — a runway reads “Open” only with a complete NOTAM picture.
